No, complete removal will make code less readable. Why can't
you
read commas?
Have you never experienced this bug before?
enum vals = [
"afoo01foo01",
"bbar02foo02",
"cdoo03foo03",
"dfoo01foo04",
"ebar02foo01",
"fdoo03foo02",
"gfoo01foo03",
"hbar02foo04",
"aidoo03foo01"
"jfoo01foo02a",
"kbar02foo03",
"ldoo03foo04",
];
This has nothing to do with the comma operator, but what it has
to do
is with readability. The comma is easily misplaced.
I experienced it this very morning, testing your getopt code :/
Forgot to place the parens at all :
string[] args = ["myProgram.exe" "--users" "foo" "bar"];
I know the code is wrong, but there's something that seriously
pisses me off about code that compiles anyways, then does weird
stuff.
Implicit string concatenation brings *no* "functional" gains, but
*is* a source of bugs. That should also killed with extreme
prejudice.
